v1.125.1

[alextran1502]

v1.125.1

There was a hiccup with the release pipeline for v1.125.0 so we have to change the version

Important

If you are running remote machine learning, please make sure the remote service pulls the latest version.

Highlights

Welcome to release v1.125.1 of Immich. The release improves how the server queries the database, using a type-safe query builder, Kysely, instead of relying on the magic of TypeORM. Many queries have been given a speed boost to be much faster; some got several times faster. You should see a quicker app experience overall. It has been the work for the last couple of months and a foundation we have been building for many changes in the coming months to the data model of the whole app, which is needed to enable some long-awaited features. Kudos to the entire team for completing it. Alongside that improvement, this release also brings new features, enhancements, and bug fixes. Please see some of the highlights below:

• Node.js security update
• Share-to mechanism on the mobile app
• Enable slideshow everywhere on the web app.
• Fixed a bug where the Android app cannot get newly taken photos from the gallery. However, this fix requires us to roll back another mechanism that allows the app to choose empty albums as targets for backup.
• Fixed a bug where playing particular video codecs would crash the Android mobile app.

Node.js security update

This release includes a Node.js security update. While we don’t believe any of these vulnerabilities affect Immich, we still recommend updating soon to avoid any risk.

Share-to Immich

You can now directly share media from other apps to Immich without saving them to the phone’s local gallery first.

Important

For uploading photos from the gallery, it is still recommeded to use the built-in backup feature since the share-to mechanism that can cause mismatching upload status. Additionally, iOS defaults to sharing an exported JPEG image instead of the original for formats like HEIC. You can change this by tapping “Options” near the top of the iOS sharing menu and selecting “Current” instead of “Automatic”.

Slideshow everywhere

You can now toggle the slideshow mode from all the views on the web app.

Lens information

This release includes the lens information in the detail panel for our photographer users, making it easier to know which of your favorite lenses was used to capture the photo.

Full Changelog: v1.124.2...v1.125.0

This discussion was created from the release v1.125.1.

What a coincidence! I was just setting up my partner with Immich a couple days ago so that they could upload to shared albums, and I was wishing there was a way to just upload single photos without enabling backup on the entire camera roll (while leaving background/foreground backup disabled) just so that the images would show in the timeline for individual backup.

Now I can just have them share whatever to Immich and not risk them accidentally backing up everything 🎉

It would also be cool if there was an upload button in the app similar to desktop that opens a file picker for uploading individual files, but using share-to should cover this use-case. Before now I was telling them to just browse to the web UI on their iPhone to use the one-off upload button there.

Getting an "Invalid URL" error in this release. Rolled back to v1.124.2 no problem, though.

Feel free to open a GitHub issue and provide your setup information, we can help you take a look there

[suderman]

Thanks, I did.

This release has announced a couple of breaking changes (under "Whats Changed"), but it doesn't give any steps for the user to upgrade safely. On some other releases, there are upgrade steps - see v1.118.0.

I thought that everytime there's a breaking change, the user has to handle it somehow during upgrade (hence the name "breaking change"). Some clarity on this?

(I'm new to immich, running 1.124.2, and this would be my first upgrade)

[mertalev]

#15487 is not really a user-facing change although technically breaking. #15264 is worth a mention but it doesn't affect you unless you (for some reason) wrote out a bitrate limit in bytes in the transcoding settings, and even then it just means the limit is higher than what you wrote.

[bo0tzz]

Breaking changes don't necessarily mean everyone needs to make a change to upgrade - in this case, they're changes that would only apply to specific people who will know what to do based on the linked PRs.
